Great lawyer and an ever better human being

Attorney Leeds is very knowledgable in his field of expertise. He carries himself in a professional manner, with honesty and dignity. He has become a friend and confidant, helping my children and I get through the loss of our only vehicle due to fire and a denial from the insurance company. My case i...s not a slam dunk but I am positive the outcome will be a positive one. I would recommend him 100%.

Great Lawyer

I have had the pleasure to have Mr. Leeds as my Attorney , I must say I would definitely recommend Mr. Leeds to people. He was a very professional lawyer but he will tell you how it is which you don't get very often from people in his profession. Most just want your money in my case Mr. Leeds and h...is staff kept me informed on everything that was going on and helped me when I had any questions regarding my case . I must say in my experience with Mr. Leeds it felt as we were friends not because we went to lunch on a regular basis but because he believed me and took on my case knowing the odds were against us but we prevailed in the end. Thank you Scott and Hillary!!!!

Excellent Advice and Directions

Scott was very helpful and got me going in the right direction. I would recommend him to anyone seeking advice on whether to pursue litigation. I've dealt with him in the past and he has always steered me in the right direction for the best outcome.

Top Notch Lawyer - Highly Recommended

It is difficult enough to live with the results of medical malpractice. Finding an attorney you can trust and depend on is equally difficult. There is no such thing as a "quick settlement" when medical negligence is involved so the lawyer you hire must be someone you can have a long-term relationsh...ip with. Someone who will not forget you as the months and even years go by. Scott Leeds is a kind, compassionate, honest and trustworthy attorney. Our legal system can be very frustrating at times, but Mr. Leeds stuck with us and brought our case to conclusion with a final result far greater than we had dared to hope. I would highly recommend Scott Leeds

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
